PET SPOTLIGHT
Buttercup
UPDATE-Adopted! Look at that pretty face! This is Buttercup! She spent several months being a terrific mom and couldn't be adopted so may not have met as many potential adopters as the other kitties. However, she is not to be missed!
Buttercup is a young female tabby kitty, about 1 year of age. She has a petite frame with a pretty, short haired coat with light colors of gray & tan and dark gray stripes and swirls throughout. She is a very sweet girl that loves attention and pets and will purr appreciatively! She avoids confrontations with other kitties, and would rather stay in her kennel to avoid the grumpy cats in the building. Buttercup doesn’t seem to like loud noises and is timid with young kids so we advise a QUIET home with older children. She may do ok with non-aggressive dogs and cats (where she has a ‘safe’ place to retreat to), or would be happy as an only pet.
Lovely Buttercup is quiet and gentle and doesn’t seem to mind being picked up. Her favorite toy is a plastic spring cat toy she can bat around to her heart’s content. Buttercup arrived with little bitty kittens and was a wonderful, devoted mom! Now that the kittens are weaned, Buttercup is looking for her own forever, indoor, loving home! Maybe your home?!
Amisha
Amisha is a 4 month old female tabby kitten. Amisha is a Hindi name that means “beautiful” and “pure”. She has a lovely soft, long-medium haired coat in light grey with darker stripes that will need at least weekly brushing to remain tangle free. White fur highlights her mouth and around her pretty golden eyes. Amisha is a beautiful gal that enjoys cuddling and purrs a lot. She likes her sister and brothers but isn’t patient with most other cats and would probably prefer to be an only cat. Amisha’s pregnant stray mom was taken in by a kind soul and had her five kittens on 7/15/25. The kittens were weaned and then spent some time in foster care getting big and strong. They are a playful, curious, active group that enjoys lots of toys, tunnels and cat trees. Amisha is fond of interactive play with a wand and ribbon or cat puzzle type toys. She likes any food except beef-flavored wet food and plays with anything that she can get her paws on. Kittens require kitten formula food until a year of age for healthy development.
Darkness
UPDATE-Adopted with sib Pewter! Darkness is a 4 month old female kitty with a beautiful rare coat. The top layer of her short haired soft coat is black tabby but the under coat is white. This makes her a “black smoke”. You can see the white with every movement she makes, shifting under the top coat. She also sports a black nose, dark golden eyes and black whiskers. A regular brushing will help keep her fur soft and silky. Darkness is a very interactive kitten who LOVES to see what people are doing and to interactively play with or just cuddle with them. She seems to adore her brother Pewter but otherwise would rather be an only fur-child and have all the attention. She plays with whatever she can get her paws on when not cuddling. Darkness’ pregnant stray mom was taken in by a kind soul and had her five kittens on 7/15/25. The kittens were weaned and then spent some time in foster care getting big and strong. Darkness loves wet food but will also eat dry if it’s there. Temptations are her favorite treats. Kittens require kitten formula food until a year of age for healthy development.
Endah
UPDATE-Adopted! Endah is a 4 month old female kitten. Her fluffy, longer, tortoiseshell coat is soft and plush and will need at least weekly brushing to keep it mat free. Her lovely coat is a combination of black, grays and some light splashes of color. Endah has a black nose and deep golden eyes. The name Endah is African and means beautiful and strong. Endah is an adorable kitty with a sweet temperament. She likes to cuddle, especially after playing a bit. She prefers people over other cats. We don’t know about her and dogs. Endah’s pregnant stray mom was taken in by a kind soul and had her five kittens on 7/15/25. The kittens were weaned and then spent some time in foster care getting big and strong. They are a playful, curious. active group. Endah prefers cat-puzzle toys and interactive wand or ribbon play are her favorites. She eats everything except beef-flavored wet food and generally prefers wet fish-flavored kitten food though she’ll eat dry, too. She likes a spoonful of Greek yogurt or cottage cheese as a treat now and then. Kittens require kitten formula food until a year of age for healthy development.
Fireball
Fireball is a big, 4 month old, orange-gold, lover boy. His soft coat is medium in length and a medium orange color with darker stripes. He will need regular (at least weekly) brushing to avoid mats. Fireball has a loud, happy purr! He’s very laid back, but likes to be up on things, including up on your shoulder or in your arms. Fireball’s pregnant stray mom was taken in by a kind soul and had her five kittens on 7/15/25. The kittens were weaned and then spent some time in foster care getting big and strong. They are a playful, curious. active group. All toys are his fun things and people just delight him. As long as not pestered, he’s ok with other cats. He hasn’t met a dog, so we don’t know about him with them.
He eats everything offered per the fosterer including any and all treats. Churus are his favorite treats. Kittens require kitten formula food until a year of age for healthy development.
Gemma
Gemma is approximately 9 years of age. A soft, medium coated Tabby. She's a lovely grey colored cat with expressive facial markings. Gemma is quiet and keeps to herself in the cat room, but welcomes a bit of attention. She likes to be brushed and petted, but for a short time. Gemma may not be best for young kids at this point, but probably waiting for the right family to show her love and bring out her social side. (approx DOB 11/1/16)
Mia
Mia is a tabby kitty about 1 ½ years of age. Her short haired coat is darker gray with some lighter swirls. And her face has white on her neck, around her eyes and a ‘triangle’ over her nose and mouth. There’s a spot of white on her paws too. Mia is a very sweet, gentle lady and was deeply loved in her previous home. She is a sweet heart and looking for a new forever home to adore her. Mia enjoys laps and will snuggle with you during tv time. She is a little shy right now as she gets used to her new living arrangements and will most likely be a bit shy in the beginning at her new home. Make sure she has a quiet place all her own while she gets used to the sounds and activity at her new place. Mia does very well on dry cat food. She does not enjoy ‘lickable’ products.
Mommas
Mommas is a black female kitty about 2 years of age. She has a soft short-haired coat, light green eyes and a black nose. Mommas is a sweet, quiet kitty that likes pets and head rubs. She would love a forever home to call her own. Come visit and see if you are a match!
Mouse
Mouse is a young female black kitty we think about 1-2 years of age. Her silky short haired coat is all black as is her whiskers and nose. Her lovely light golden/green eyes really stand out against her coat. Mouse is a bit of a character, showing either a sweet personality or a spicy one depending on her mood. Her new person will probably need a bit of time to figure out her likes and dislikes to make everyone happy! Young kids are probably not a good fit for Mouse. Mouse previously lived with a gentle dog. Come meet this beautiful gal!
Pewter
UPDATE- Adopted with sib Darkness! Pewter is a 4 month old male kitty with a dark gray coat. His soft fur is long-medium in length and a bit unruly and will need at least weekly brushing to keep it from being matted. Pewter’s lovely coat is all gray, as is his nose and he has handsome dark golden eyes. He and his sibs are playful active kittens that will enjoy a variety of toys, tunnels, cat trees and interactive play with their person. Pewter’s pregnant stray mom was taken in by a kind soul and had her five kittens on 7/15/25. The kittens were weaned and then spent some time in foster care getting big and strong. Pewter is a very sweet boy who likes to hang out with his sister, Darkness, and enjoys cuddling with people. The fosterer said Pewter spent a lot of time on her husband’s lap! Pewter eats everything except beef-flavored wet food and generally prefers wet fish-flavored kitten food though he’ll eat dry, too. Pewter likes a spoonful of Greek yogurt or Temptations as treats. Kittens require kitten formula food until a year of age for healthy development.
Rollo
Rollo is a Domestic Short Hair who is approximately 9 years of age. He is black with some grey/white coloring above his pretty eyes. Rollo is an independent cat, but loves attention and petting when it's on his own terms. A sweet boy, but shy and will need a patient family to out him at ease. At this point we suggest a quiet household without young kids. (approx DOB 11/2016)
